:yad eht fo mublA

Make Up the Breakdown, Hot Hot Heat
Strong Point(s): Steve Bays has an oddly addicting yelp of a voice, and the percussion on this entire album is crazy. Canadian punk has never danced like this before.
Weak Point(s): The songs all sound a tad alike; I get really mixed-up when I listen to this album. And the fact that it only has ten songs just leaves me wanting more (but in a way, that's a good thing).
Best Song(s): There's a fantastic section in the middle of this album. "Oh, Goddamnit" has lilting nonsense lyrics that will stick in your head for ages. "Aveda" is some kind of sick love song...or at least sounds like one, anyway. "This Town" taps into that feeling of hometown hatred, yet at the same time depicts the abandonment felt by those who stay home when their friends all grow up and leave. Lastly, "Talk to Me, Dance with Me" is like two songs in one; half is a bopping experiment in percussion, and half is a plaintive cry for companionship.
Worst Song(s): "Save Us S.O.S" seems like a filler track, and if you’re only going to give us ten, you can’t really afford to have filler.
Other Comments: Fantastic. Buy. You. Now.
Grade:85 out of 100
